As Lester slowly recovers, the two are married with only Edward and a few friends in attendance. On the return trip to America, Edward is reaquainted with the Loves, a father and daughter who had been vacationing in Italy. Edward and Zoe, the daughter, fall in love and marry. Meanwhile, at home, Captain Raymond, a widower, courts and wins the love of Elsie's daughter Violet. Elsie, her children, and their families spend a happy summer at the shore.
